About this Website

This is the fourth iteration of the Introduction to Open Data course and the third in website format. Originally created as a Markdown-based presentation (Raemy, 2024), the course was first adapted into a website and now continues to evolve. While the core content from the original presentation remains valuable, this version introduces a restructured approach to hopefully better serve learners’ needs.

This Quarto-based site maintains essential concepts while offering improved layout, accessibility, and the capacity for ongoing refinement as the open data landscape develops.
